Dr. Red Frisbee

The clock's ticking down the seconds for med school to begin in just over a week. I'm finally getting excited about it methinks.

A surprise came in the mail yesterday. A membership card for a medical association that I'd signed up for addressed to "Dr...". Sweet baby jesus! I'm definitely going to start carrying that around in my wallet. Perhaps "drop" it whilst picking up milk at my grocery store while standing in line ahead of a cute girl. Oh the completely medically-unrelated benefits of med school.

ETA: Two weeks

Two weeks down before starting the big bad med school! Looking forward to getting up 6am everyday for the next god knows how many years! ughhh.

It's weird to think about starting school again after having spent the last few years working, backpacking, and doing random random stuff thanks to the freedom from school. Now it's time to get my tetra packs stocked up for school lunches. Swweeet - capri sun's!

The prep work i've done thus far:
- student loans (being in debt is a right of passage for MD's - kinda like a bar mitzvah)
- new laptop (so sleek, so sexy)
- lost income via quitting work (refer to point one re: debts)
- vaccinations (oh and the bloodwork came back...i'm all good baby!)

Anyway - got my registration package in the mail. Seems like orientation week is going to be a hoot! BBQ's, roleplaying, and amazing races around the campus. swwwweeeeet!
